What does auto do in the the edge limited?. On a hot day i set the temp on 60 thinking the a/c fan should be auto set to high. It does not do anything? On my old car the fan auto adjusts depending on the need to get cool/hot. The edge seems to do nothing.

 

What is going on?

60 is Max A/C mode (90 is max heat). It should put the fan on high and set recirculation. If yours doesn't do anything then it may not be in automatic mode. Hit the Auto button, then set it to 60 and wait a few seconds. If it still doesn't do anything it may not be working correctly.

I've got a 11 Limited and have notice strange behaviors with the climate system. I think it must be tied to the bugging MyFordTouch.

I always have auto set in my system.

I noticed that on hot days, I would start the car and the fan would be on TURBO mode! until the interior cooled down. It works great. Too bad it doesn't do that all the time when it's hot out.

At times I've felt the A/C goes into some kind of ECO mode while I'm driving.

I've also noticed that I unknowingly touched the Auto button and turned it off...was getting fan at about 75% speed

On the non-MFT systems if you touch the fan speed while in auto mode it locks the fan into that speed until you hit Auto again. The display will show the fan speed. At least 2 or 3 times per month I get in the Edge and find that my wife or daughter has left it in semi-auto mode with the fan stuck on low.

Not sure if the MFT systems work the same way.

Having Myford Touch 3.0.1 (?) I notice problems with fan speed when in Auto mode. Anyone else have issues with this? If I get in the car on a hot day I notice when I start the car the fan goes on high speed for a couple of seconds and then kicks down to a low speed. This is not cooling the car as it should.
